The paper investigates the use of ice storage technology as a demand side management tool. A theoretical study of a dairy application is described in which the costs of running an ice storage installation under a traditional maximum demand tariff are compared with those under a pool-based contract. The paper also describes a new dynamic ice slurry system currently under development.
